  1. How can I opt out from Windows 11 forever?


    No Microsoft, I'm not interested in your bloatware-ridden borderline spyware 'operating system' that was made to mine me for as much data as possible and not for the sake of making a good operating system. Keep your filthy hands away from my privacy and don't you dare force me to 'upgrade'. There is absolutely nothing wrong with windows 10 and there is no need for an upgrade, all 11 would do is allow you to mine my data without a chance to opt out of literally everything.In other words: people upgrading to 11 is only good for Microsoft, not the user. So how do I avoid it?
